Hi Welcome

Don't get me wrong. I'm not a 4E fan or anything; I have a really long list of complaints about the game and the PHB3/July 2010 errata fiasco was the last straw. But when you poll the average '3E good, 4E bad' fan about why 4E isn't any good, you tend to get a bunch of bullshit complaints mixed in ...

I messed up some system mastery stuff for a system I've admitted I'm not fond of and haven't played in five years, you mess up the meaning of basic words and concepts and I'm the fuckwit? You made a factual claim that was wrong . On the Internet . Your sock puppet did too. Ray of Stupidity works ju...

Ok, so you just use a strategy guide or AI, or common sense (in some cases) to work it out. Also... Armamentalists have 75% of the strength of Gladiators, assuming everything is maxed. If it isn't, the difference will be a lot larger, seeing as it is still 149 points at level 99, regardless of whet...

Hey. What the hell did I miss? Can anyone PM me with the lulz? I could use a laugh.

Well, the comparison does show "level 1 fighter" in D&D kills more "goblins" the later you go in the editions, and in 4e. Certainly, by making "1st level" 4e characters about as strong as "4th level" D&D characters, they made them tougher than 1st lev...

ITT: 4rries can't tell the difference between actual abilities that counter actual abilities to form some actual depth and strategy, and BAW but the high level PCs can ruin my level 1 plot, WE CAN'T BE HAVING WITH THIS! You do realize that I'm not even a fan of 4E, right? I'm a fan of GURPS, Burnin...

Every option you introduce into the game is an option that will make someone happy that they can more accurately represent their concept. If your new option is the Warblade then the guy who likes Fighters, the other guy who likes Rangers, someone who likes Paladins, and all the ones who like the Gi...

Not just that. I wasn't summarizing his argument. I was quoting it. Verbatim . That word doesn't mean what you think it means. Hi Welcome Scry locates a single person who fails their save. If they don`t have detect scrying, or non-detection or nindblank, then you`ve found one person who you already...

Because you always start at high levels instead of ya know, playing your way there?

Hi Welcome It's not a straw man, it's an actual argument you actually said. Provide the quote then. Shouldn't be hard if I said it. Dude, you just said it . You know, again . Seriously, what the fuck: but the actual argument was that you shouldn't set up a level appropriate encounter full of flying...

If I'm a bad guy, and I know a group of purely melee people are coming to ruin my day, why wouldn't I hand some bows to my flying monkeys? One better. If I'm a bad guy, and I know a group of purely melee people are coming to ruin my day, you had better fucking believe I am making every single one o...

It's very short ranged and can't be used in rapid succession so if you do something stupid you're stuck? But they can't use their powers with them. Once the novelty of martial weapons wears off, a 3e fighter has the option of training archery or buying some Winged Boots. 3e fighters don't get any p...

Hi Welcome

It's not a straw man, it's an actual argument you actually said.

But... flight is a plot power, and you totally should never have the party fight winged opponents, because they're completely helpless against such foes!

Oh, and in DQ9 I finally managed to unlock Armamentalist. Haven't had a chance to try it out yet. Is there a way in-game to determine elemental weakness other than trial and error? I am missing a scan spell in this game pretty hardcore. The in game bestiary tells you. No, it does not. The in-game b...

Based on what exactly?

I wasn't aware of this either. Still, a 25 HP first level goblin just does not compute. Something is wrong.

It's 4.Fail. Course there's something wrong.

Well, anything vs Pathfinder means the other thing wins by default. Exception: FATAL. That's a tie.

If you want a more meaningful discussion, consider adjusting the parameters.

Congratulations JE. Shadzar and Tzor posted in a thread, but you still have the most retarded post in the thread. Hey Roy come post something smarter than JE to finish this off. Hi Welcome While shadzar fails, as usual tzor wasn't that bad, and JE actually made sense. And you were beating him right...

Hi Welcome

While shadzar fails, as usual tzor wasn't that bad, and JE actually made sense.

Hey guys, look, it's shadzar, wanking off to old editions.

Hasn't that record been broken into dust by now?
